A nationwide search for some sought after fabric with no avail, led to the purchase of this Kaffe Fassett fabric (Big Bloom in Pink) from Rosebud Quilter on Etsy.

Michelle from Rosebud Quiltingalso sent along a whole bunch of 1 1/2 inch squares which she thought I might like playing with.

Rightly so, it inspired some fun fabric play, free motion quilting practice,and my next quilt? Just one inch squares. Maybe? I love the idea of a quilt with tiny squares, and I am working out a plan for a more efficient strip piecing method.

Those one inch squares are too cool!!! Love them. I like them with the white fabric. Did you piece those or sew them on top of the white fabric? Your quilting is great on those pieces. I, too, will be interested to see what you come up with on your efficient strip piecing method. I'm thinking I might do something similar with those two inch Moda Sampler packs I purchased. Thanks for sharing.

One of my very favourite places to be when I was a teenager was with my super clever creative neighbour (who was/is an amazing quilter). It was always warm & she was always working on something totally amazing. Spending time here feels like that. xxx

wow, love what you did with the tiny squares, looks like the voting is in...all want to see an inchie quilt from you, me inlcuded. I dream of having time to do one some day, I've seen a couple at our local quilt shows that have been absolutely incredible. Your pebble quilting looks fantastic. Can't wait to see what you do with the Big Bloom. Thanks so much for shopping with me.
